DEPRICATION WARNING: the functionality in this script has been superceeded / trivialised by updated web standards.
This content gallery loads content progressively using AJAX and uses CSS3 transitions for animation and positioning. The optional web service providing the content is based on PHP, but the concept can be easily reproduced in other languages.
The stylesheet is best included in the header of the document.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/gallery.css"/>
This include can be added to the header or placed inline before the script is invoked.
<script src="lib/requests.js"></script>
<script src="lib/transitions.js"></script>
<script src="js/gallery.js"></script>
Or use Require.js.
requirejs([
'lib/requests.js',
'lib/transitions.js',
'js/gallery.js'
], function(requests, transitions, Gallery) {
...
});
Or use imported as a component in existing projects.
@import {requests = require('lib/requests.js";
@import {transitions = require('lib/transitions.js";
@import {Gallery} from "js/gallery.js');
